Consilium AC-IR-3FQ IR Flame Detector (5200236-00A)
The Consilium AC-IR-3FQ (5200236-00A) is a high-performance triple-frequency infrared (IR) flame detector designed for rapid and reliable fire detection in demanding industrial, marine, and offshore environments. Utilizing advanced 3Fq IR sensing technology, it provides fast response to hydrocarbon and carbonaceous fires while minimizing false alarms caused by sunlight, hot surfaces, and other environmental influences. With low power consumption, adjustable sensitivity settings, and compatibility with addressable and conventional fire alarm systems (depending on the detector base), the AC-IR-3FQ is an ideal solution for critical fire protection applications.
